Column Layout Grid and Sub-Categories

**Abdullah** · 22 Apr 2009, 02:28 AM

This is probably a long shot, I spent about an hour looking through the posts relating to "Column Layout Grid for Product Listing" and couldn't find my answer...

Does anyone know of a way I can use the Column Layout Grid for Product Listing and have it only put the actual products into grid form and leave the sub-categories in their original lay-out? I'm trying to work with a pedantic client that insists the store look exactly as the graphic designer gave him in the stylized graphical representation of what he envisioned the cart should look like...

and alas the designer decided that sub-categories should be a vertical list, and never not shown in the categories side bar and products should be displayed in grid form.

I will not shy away from php code modification, but I'm un-sure where to look and what to change.

Category listings and product listings are completely separate, and Column Grid will have no effect on your subcats layout.

Try Configuration > Maximum Values > Categories To List Per Row, set to 1.

thanks heaps worked a charm :)

now I just have to remove the 'Column Divider Pro' mod but I'm sure it has instructions, if not I'll just remove the modified files and re-load them :)
